Re: The Gap - Join MOT and help close it today!!1!

Hi Dave A. The building I work in is not the tallest, its just the angle of the photo. The tallest used to be the Bank of China, but that has now been overtaken by a building with the catchy title 'International Finance Centre 2' abv to IFC2 for obvious reasons. Still neither is as tall as the Petronas Towers in KL or Taipai 101 in Taiwan. I believe all these will be overtaken by the Freedom Tower in NYC when its finished, though I could be wrong.
That won't be the tallest either. At 1776 feet it's a symbolic height. Burj Dubai, in the Arab Emirates, is under construction and planned to be approximately 2300 feet. Many search items and a website for it can be found by doing a Google search for "Burj Dubai".

The tallest building that isn't being used for anything is the 1083 foot, 105 floor pyramidal Ryugyong hotel shell in Pyongyang, North Korea.

These guys keep statistics on many buildings, tallest or not:

Dear potential 200th Team Mate

Please don't be put off by our 40Million+ points. Please don't be put off by the fact that you will be the 200th Team Mate. Please don't be overwhelmed by the MOT Crew and the Team's Website

We really are just a bunch of friendly mere mortals just like you who crunch because we believe it will help find cures for some of Mankinds most serious ailments and at the end of the day that is what it's all about - the team bravado is just for fun.

The WCG is better than any SuperComputer - you won't find friends from right around the globe with a SuperComputer.

All you need to do it press that "Join this Team" Button.

All the best
Dave

Re: The Gap - Join MOT and help close it today!!1!

Good job all of you - keep it up!
David - I had a look at your team website. That pic of yours of the haystacks is nice. Are you sure this is not the same place as the standard XP wall paper hill? wink biggrin

btw... haystacks have a certain amount of sadness as they are a sign that summer is comming to an end - but then again - fall means wind and that means WINDSURFING yahoooooo
After that comes winter - and that means snowboarding - yahoooooooooooo hooooo hooooooo

Hi Robsab

Getting this 200th Team Mate on board is turning into something like the Sound Barrier I know we will accelerate once we break through the 200 barrier.

The photo is a bit teletubby land Windows XP but I had driven past this scene for 3 days on my way to work and I just had to take my camera up there before they took the haystacks away.

The irony of your observation is that it's now my desktop wink

Cheers

Dave

Hi from the Land of UBUNTU Linux

Things are a little strange (Especially not having to pay for the software) here in Ubuntu land but it works (as you can see)

I'm ready for the Linux Agent now when it arrives biggrin

A few teething troubles but it's testament to the fact that Linux has come a long way that I can post on the forum it shows how easy it was even for me wink It's come a long way since the last time I looked

+ the kids are amazed as they have never seen anything other than Windows

Dave cool

Now to try out OpenOffice
